David Tennant appeared in True Love which was broadcast over four consecutive nights on the BBC starting on Sunday 17th June. David was in the first episode which was broadcast from 10.25pm until 11pm that evening.

It is a drama which is based on a plot written by Dominic Savage but involves improvisation by the actors.

David Tennant filmed his scenes during September 2011. The drama is set in Margate where he filmed for several days.

David Morrissey, Jane Horricks and Billie Piper will appear in other stories in this five part series.

The story of David's character is:
"Nick (David Tennant) is happily married: his wife and children are everything to him, but when his first love appears out of the blue he suddenly starts to question everything. Can they go back to what they had all those years ago?"

David Tennant's episode (Nick) was the most watched episode of the series with almost half a million viewers extra.

Overnight the Press Association posted an article about David Tennant which is based on his Radio Times interview to promote True Love. This has subsequently been picked up by several newspapers and websites (e.g. Scotsman.com and DigitalSpy).
As Press Association articles are removed after a while, it read:
"Tennant tells of 'terrifying' fame
David Tennant has told how he found his rise to fame "terrifying" after landing the lead in Doctor Who.
The actor quit the BBC One sci-fi show in 2010 after four years occupying the Tardis. He told the Radio Times that he had not been typecast since leaving, and that the role had opened up more doors than it had closed.
But David said of getting used to being recognised: "No one can teach you what it's like to be observed in public.
"I remember, before I was that person, watching well-known people walk into a room - you imbue them with inner confidence and a slightly royal presence.
"Yet when it's you, it's terrifying. People lean over in restaurants and say, 'Don't look now, but that's him off the telly.' Very peculiar."
"I'm not moaning - there's nothing worse than that, because there are huge advantages - but you feel vulnerable," he said. "The world's perception of you has changed while you remain the same."
The 41-year-old, who married actress Georgia Moffett, 27, on New Year's Eve after they met on the set of Doctor Who, said actors should not have to be role models.
"There's a sense everyone in the public eye has to have moral purity," he told the magazine.
"Personally I might agree that's a good thing but I don't see why, because you're in a TV programme, you have to be perfect.
"Actors often get a bad press, but 87.5 per cent are down-to-earth and reasonable. Difficult ones are becoming rare because the world doesn't allow it. They're usually not the big stars but those who believe they should be."" Updated 12/6
